The all-new 2018 Holden Commodore will go on-sale in late February 2018 from $35,990 driveaway and tops out at $53,990+ORC for the Calais-V Tourer V6 AWD.

THE 2018 HOLDEN COMMODORE which Practical Motoring has already tested in Opel Insignia form will go on-sale here from late February 2018. Pricing kicks off from $33,690+ORC for the entry-level 2.0L LT or $35,990 drive-away.

“The next-generation Commodore is a stunning vehicle that’s already getting rave reviews in Europe in Opel Insignia guise,” said Holden’s Executive Director – Marketing, Mark Harland.

“It looks sleek and sporty on the outside, while inside it’s refined and sophisticated with intelligent use of premium materials and a long list of user-friendly high-tech features like Adaptive Cruise Control, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and wireless phone charging.

“As well as being able to access the range from just $35,990 on-the-road, customers are given peace of mind to test the car in their own time and see how well it fits in their daily lives with our Take Your Time test Drive,” Harland said.

Holden is keen to play up the work it’s done on the new Commodore and particularly the V6 variants which all get all-wheel drive as standard. Holden said its engineers had run up more than 150,000km in testing to give the Commodore a unique suspension and steering tune to its European cousins.
